TDOT closing Bypass lanes

Tennessee Department of Transportation contract crews will close south and northbound lanes on the U.S. 45 Bypass Thursday to set concrete barrier rail for utility work.

8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Thursday: Work will begin in the southbound lanes of the U.S. 45 Bypass by closing one inside lane, with two lanes remaining open. This work is to permanently close the turning lane and U-turn between Carriage House Drive and Old Hickory Boulevard.

Crews will then move and close the two outside northbound lanes between Old Hickory Boulevard and Carriage House Drive; one lane will remain open. This closure will result in a long-term closure, with two northbound lanes remaining open.

As always, drivers are reminded to use all motorist information tools wisely and Know Before You Go! by checking travel conditions before leaving for your destination. Drivers should never tweet, text or talk on a cell phone while behind the wheel.
